This Blog will discuss politics, government, corruption, police, S.I.U., courts, education, min. of attorney general, min. of labour, v.o.i.c.e. and other current and past events of interest to concerned citizens. In the "About me" section to the right and down I have included the names of persons whom I have tremendous respect for. Their influence on me however has been primarily environmental (and personal) and this is therefore a disclaimer that all words posted on this Blog/Website are mine and I alone am responsible for them. I say this with the greatest respect and affection to my friends.

CONSERVATIVE GOVERNMENT TREATS VETS SHAMEFULLY



Today's Waterloo Region Record carrys this story "Military vets want "duty of care" acknowledged". The last paragraph in this story sums it up well. "The government is quick to summon them for service and call them heroes, but leaves them mired in a bureaucratic swamp when it comes time for compensation, MacLead said. "If you can't afford the wounded," he said, "you can't afford the war.".".

Our Tory federal government are liars and hypocrites. They are backpeddling on promises made to returning miltary veterans since the First World War. It's bad enough that these gutless wonders send proxies in their place to shed their blood, often for no more than to give the Canadian government status and prestige either on the world stage or worse yet in support of U.S. foreign policy. Then to deny by backdoor bureaucratic hoops and loops, benefits that our veterans require is scurrilous. Shame on Prime Minister Harper and Peter McKay and our federal government overall. Their self serving frugality apparently knows no bounds nor ethics.
